The sales pipeline is an essential feature of any CRM system. The primary purpose of a sales pipeline is to help the sales team to close more deals. Sales Pipeline has proved to be the most effective tool to organize the information required to follow up on open opportunities and close the deals. Here in this article, I have explained the Sales Pipeline, its importance, and how you can build a very effective sales pipeline with Deskera Sales.

What is a Sales Pipeline?

A sales pipeline is a visual representation of all the deals or sales opportunities by stages. To understand more about the Sales pipeline, let us find out how the sales process works. Each sales representative has a list of deals or opportunities which they are trying to close. Each deal is at different stage example- prospecting, qualifying, negotiating, etc. Every salesperson maintains this list of all prospects with stages, action items, deal amount, etc. Sales Pipeline in a CRM system helps you to organize and view all these deals in one place by the stages so that information doesn’t get lost.

What are the different stages of a Sales Pipeline?

Sales Pipeline stages vary from company to company depending on products and services offered by them and also by the sales process defined by their management. Following are some most commonly used sales pipeline stages:

  1. Prospect
  2. Qualify
  3. Contact
  4. Proposal
  5. Negotiate
  6. Close
